What's Wrong?
The sandboxing documentation contains:
To make this a hard failure instead, set sandbox.failIfUnavailable to true.
But the settings schema does not currently document this field.
We are maintaining an organisation-wide managed settings file in a git repo, and our CI check validates the file against the settings schema to make sure we don't cause issues (invalid file, or worse, intended change has no effect) when people raise MRs into the settings file. We currently cannot add this setting because it is absent in the schema.
What Should Happen?
Update the schema.
